Sculpted form:
The 'sandwich technique' (ie layering of metal sheet to acrylic sheet so as to create dimension) creates a block from which to 'sculpt' .. by this I mean I can apply my handsaw and files to affect the shape of the piece as one would in clay/ wood and other sculptural medium. Obviously the more layers lamented together, the more 3-dimensional the piece may become. Pacman below is an example of a more flat form, while honeybee is more round and fuller in body.

on the Colour Yellow:
"Hope and Happiness: Yellow is sunshine. It is a warm color that, like red, has conflicting symbolism. On the one hand it denotes happiness and joy but on the other hand yellow is the color of cowardice. Nature of Yellow: Yellow is one of the warm colors. Because of the high visibility of bright yellow, it is often used for hazard signs and some emergency vehicles. Yellow is ('considered') cheerful." (ref below)
